More than Pharaoh’s daughter
loved the baby Moses,
more than our mothers loved us,
you, O God, loved your Son.
If we love him, too, we must listen to
him;
if we listen to him, we will love others;
if we do not love, we are nothing.

Ps. 22:9
Yet it was you
who took me from the womb;
you kept me safe on my mother’s breast.

Exod. 2:5b-6
[Pharaoh's
daughter] saw the basket among the reeds and sent her maid to bring it.
When she opened it, she saw the child.
He was crying, and she took pity on him, "This must be one of the
Hebrews' children," she said.
1 Cor. 13:2
And if I have
prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have
all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
Mark 9:7
Then a cloud
overshadowed [Peter, James, and John], and from the cloud there came a voice,
"This is my Son, the Beloved; listen to him!"
